SCShilpa Choyal BGBuddhika S. A. Gedara AOAyoyele Ologun

Key Points

The study aims to examine the growth and intercalation mechanisms of nickel nanoclusters on graphene/Ir(111).
Utilized scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) for observation
Conducted experiments under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions
Analyzed grow patterns at room temperature (RT)
Identified distinct growth patterns of nickel nanoclusters on the moiré superlattice
Observed variations in intercalation dynamics depending on environmental conditions
Demonstrated the influence of substrate structure on nanocluster formation

Abstract

The growth and intercalation of nickel (Ni) nanoclusters on the moiré superlattice of graphene(Gr)/Ir(111) were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions. At room temperature (RT),...
